UdiWWW was an early freeware graphical HTML 3.2 web browser for 16-bit and 32-bit Microsoft Windows. It was written and developed by Bernd Richter in C/C++ from 1995 to 1996. Following the release of version 1.2 in April 1996, Richter ceased development, stating "let Microsoft with the ActiveX Development Kit do the rest." UdiWWW was among the first web browsers to support the then proposed HTML 3.0 standard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WORLD WIDE WEB FAQ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Microsoft Windows browsers )〕〔 In doing so, it was also among the first browsers to support the specifications html math, html figures, and the PNG image format, something that other leading browsers at the time such as Netscape and Internet Explorer 2.0 did not. The browser gained some popularity during 1996, but after development was abandoned, the browser fell out of favor. The browser is no longer available from its original homepage. However, it (and its source) can still be downloaded from mirror sites.〔Its original homepage at http://www.uni-ulm.de/~richter/udiwww/index.htm is no longer up. The original ftp page at ftp://ftp.rz.uni-ulm.de/pub/infosystems/UdiWWW/ is no longer up.〕 ==History== UdiWWW was created for the UDINE Projekt (Universal Document Information and Navigation Environment). UDINE was started in 1992 and the goal was to "create a flexible, multimedia information system that is able to show different files (text, picture, audio, and video) with a similar user interface on different systems." To be able to read "web information" the UDINE project was expanded by a web browser. It was not able to integrate common browsers like the NSCA Mosaic because of the client-server architecture without modification. The source code of Mosaic was not available at that time so the University started their own project. UDINE-WWW-Viewer was created and had most features of HTML 3 integrated.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「UdiWWW」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
